Tools of the Trade

Any photographer will tell you that the tools you choose to work with will have a major influence over your photographic style and the over all look of your images. Much like a painter must choose the right brush to make his vision come alive; a photographer must pick the right camera, the right lens, the right lighting set up, as well as a whole host of sometimes unconventional items to produce the look and feel that is desired.

There are many who make the mistaken impression that photographers simply purchase a camera and then hit the ground clicking away at the shutter creating picture perfect renditions of the world around them. Nothing could be perhaps further from the truth and we here at Hegre-Art.com have decided to share some of the more common tools that Petter Hegre puts to use when creating his vision of the nude. There is an entire orchestra of tools employed in the creation process that often go unnoticed by the casual observer.

Each item in our Tools of the Trade profiles comes with a complete description of why Petter Hegre has chosen to use a particular item, its strengths and its weaknesses. For the budding photographers among you we hope you'll find this information informative and think you'll find that here at Hegre-Art.com we settle for nothing less then the best!
